Today's I Ching for Paul Newman

The present is embodied in Hexagram 1 - Ch'ien (The Creative): That which is great and originating, penetrating, advantageous, correct and firm.

In the first (or lowest) line, undivided, we see the dragon lying hidden in the deep. It is not the time for active doing.

In the second line, undivided, we see the dragon appearing in the field. It will be advantageous to meet with the great man.

In the third line, undivided, we see the superior man active and vigilant all the day, and in the evening still careful and apprehensive. The position is dangerous, but there will be no mistake.

In the fifth line, undivided, we see the dragon on the wing in the sky. It will be advantageous to meet with the great man.

In the sixth (or topmost) line, undivided, we see its subject as the dragon exceeding the proper limits. There will be occasion for repentance.

The situation is changing rapidly, and Yin (the passive feminine force) is gaining ground.

The future is embodied in Hexagram 16 - Yu (Enthusiasm): In this state, feudal princes and other delegates may be set up, and the hosts put in motion, with advantage.

The things most apparent, those above and in front, are embodied by the upper trigram Chi'en (Heaven), which is transforming into Chen (Thunder). As part of this process, strength and creativity are giving way to movement, initiative, and action.

The things least apparent, those below and behind, are embodied by the lower trigram Chi'en (Heaven), which is transforming into K'un (Earth). As part of this process, strength and creativity are giving way to docility and receptivity.
